Nestled on over an acre of lush, meticulously landscaped grounds, this exceptional French Country-style custom home exudes timeless elegance and character. The stately stone elevation welcomes you through double doors into a grand two-story foyer, featuring stunning wood detailing and a gracefully curved staircase framed by a majestic wall of windows that bathes the space in natural light. The gourmet kitchen, thoughtfully designed to reflect contemporary trends, is a chef’s dream. A central island with rich dark wood contrasts beautifully with the luxurious granite countertops, while a refreshment bar, encased in designer cabinetry, provides the perfect setting for entertaining. The open-concept layout seamlessly connects the kitchen to the cozy family room, creating an ideal space for both daily living and special gatherings. The second floor is dedicated to comfort and relaxation, beginning with the opulent master suite, where French doors open to a private balcony overlooking the grounds. A warm, inviting fireplace anchors the space, which also features wood flooring and a spacious, spa-inspired bath with a garden tub, walk-in shower, and dual walk-in closets. An open bonus room and an additional master suite allows versatile living options, making this floor plan ideal for guests. The outdoor living space is equally impressive, with a pavered lanai and PebbleTec pool and heated spa, all set against a backdrop of stunning, professionally designed landscaping. The home’s numerous high-end finishes include plantation shutters, crown molding, trey ceilings, decorative woodwork, and custom high- end paint, while practical amenities like baby pool fence and a breezeway leading to the three-car garage with custom built-ins add both function and beauty. Located in the highly sought-after River Crest – a gated community, this home sits on a 1+ acre lot, offering privacy and tranquility, with access to exclusive amenities such as tennis courts, and a boardwalk leading to the Wekiva River. There is also events such as holiday events, bunco and so much more for the residents. The neighborhood combines the best of both worlds: the serenity of nature and the convenience of being just minutes from major highways, shopping, and dining. This is a rare opportunity to own a truly distinguished home in an extraordinary setting.
